CrystallumPeter Max Pinot Noir 2019
About this product
A bolder, richer vintage showing mulberry, cherry and sweet spice on the nose. The palate is full
and fruit forward, with both fresh and bruised strawberry and raspberry alongside a light smokiness
and some fynbos. With sturdy phenolic grip from a slightly higher whole bunch component and a
crisp acidity to back up the fruit, this wine promises to age well beyond 2028.
Vinification
Naturally fermented with 70% of the fruit de-stemmed and the remainder left as whole clusters.
Extraction is kept to a minimum during active fermentation with a total time of 4 weeks on the
skins.
